He who marvels at the beauty of the world in summer will fi nd equal cause for wonder and admiration in winter.... In winter the stars seem to have rekindled their fi res, the moon achieves a fuller triumph, and the heavens wear a look of a more exalted simplicity. ~ John Burroughs, “The Snow-Walkers,” 1866
